"What?"

Hearing these two words spoken by Cheng Lin, not only Gerald, but also all the dragon servants present were frightened and stunned.

No one expected that this "human being" would refuse.

At this moment, because Gerald deliberately restrained his aura, the "dragon power" that enveloped the surroundings was greatly reduced.

So much so that the dragon servants finally got rid of their instinctive fear, raised their heads one after another, and looked at Cheng Lin in horror.

"Mr. Ezreal actually rejected the Dragon Lord!"

This idea came to the villagers' minds almost at the same time.

In their eyes, Long Jue was already regarded as an extremely noble person.

The villagers were extremely surprised to be able to restrain their aura at this moment and face Cheng Lin with such a kind attitude.

But they never expected that Mr. Ezreal, who was "gentle", "friendly" and "never dignified or arrogant", would interrupt Long Lord's words so neatly.

He clearly expressed his rejection.

How can this not shock them into speechlessness?

Sang, Ke, and even the young man Lai and other villagers' eyes widened.

He stared in disbelief at the figure not far away who was much "slender" compared to the dragon servant.

Only the village chief has more knowledge after all.

In an instant, I suddenly realized that perhaps they had underestimated the importance of "immortal cultivators" before.

The faces of the "senior dragon servants" and Udon City guards who were also kneeling on the ground and covered with ice-blue hair also showed horror.

Immediately, he subconsciously looked at Long Jue.

According to their "experience", anyone who treats the dragon so rudely will always be severely punished by the Dragon Lord.

They didn't even doubt that the next moment their lord would tear off his disguise, spit out dragon's breath angrily, and freeze this "human" into ice.

However, what puzzled them was.

Faced with this situation, Dragon Lord Gerald did not become furious.

In other words, if there is, it has not been revealed at all.

"Your Excellency, maybe you didn't hear clearly. I am following the Dragon King's order to invite you..."

"If I say I can't go, are you deaf?"

Cheng Lin stood quietly on the snow and looked at him, slightly impatient.

hiss……

If the previous words were considered "courteous", now, the attitude expressed by this human being could not be more obvious.

But unlike what the dragon servant guards guessed, Gerald was startled for a moment after hearing this, and then his huge eyes shrank with surprise.

Dragons lack sufficiently developed nerves on their faces.

Therefore, it is difficult for others to see the turmoil in its heart from its appearance.

"How dare he reject the three Dragon Kings!"

Gerald thought to himself. Not only was he not furious, but he subconsciously took a step back, feeling an unreasonable confusion in his heart.

Compared to these low-level dragon servants, Gerald knew very well what the "human" in front of him was.

He is the chief "revelation" from destiny.

It is the mystery that comes from the unknown.

It may be the only turning point in the ongoing disaster.

Unlike those dragon servants who lack fear because of ignorance.

Gerald knew more things, so he was more aware of the importance of the figure in front of him.

Or, in other words.

He knew very well the chief dragon king's determination to find this human being.

If he does not handle this matter properly, even if he is a Dragon Lord with an independent territory, he will be torn into pieces by the furious Dragon King without hesitation!

Thinking of this consequence, Gerald shuddered severely.

He suppressed the instinctive anger caused by Cheng Lin's attitude.

Even because he suppressed it so hard, his huge, majestic dragon body suddenly seemed very humble in front of this tiny "human":

"Dear Mr. Ezreal, please forgive me for my presumptuous visit. If you are angry with me for coming uninvited, then I would like to sincerely apologize to you in the name of Dragon Lord, but... Dragon Lords do

I am eager to invite you to meet and look for your news. It has been delivered from Dragon City to all territories through our clan’s messengers five days ago. I believe..."

"You said that five days ago, your three chief dragon kings started looking for me?"

Cheng Lin interrupted him again and asked with a frown.

"Yes, the portrait drawn by the chief himself has been posted all over the kingdom."

As he spoke, Gerald unfolded the leather scroll.

Cheng Lin looked at himself in the scroll and was surprised.

This really surprised him.

When he came back from practicing his abilities in the forest, he was instinctively disgusted when he saw the scene in front of him, so he refused.

Now listen, since five days ago...well, if you include the time to deliver the message, maybe six or seven days ago, the dragon king of the giant dragon started looking for himself?

Why do the dragons know they exist?

Why did you come to find yourself?

"Is this part of the plot?"

Cheng Lin guessed in his mind.

The next moment, a long-lost "narration" appeared in his mind:

[Task (Part 2): The heads of the three dragon kings of the Dragon Kingdom have sent you an invitation. Please follow Gerald and leave the village within two hours]

Sure enough, it is a deduction of the plot...

Cheng Lin was not surprised. As for the two hours, there was much more time.

After thinking for a moment, he looked at the ice dragon coldly and said:

"I still have some things to deal with."

"I can wait."

Gerald said immediately, feeling relieved in his heart.

"Then just wait."

Cheng Lin said lightly, then walked to the group of villagers, then showed a gentle smile, and comforted the frightened Lai. Cheng Lin looked at the sky and said:

"It's getting dark soon, let's tell the story earlier today."

tell a story?

Gerald was puzzled. Although the villagers felt that something was wrong, Cheng Lin repeatedly requested that they each carry a bench, sit side by side in the small courtyard of Lai's house, and skillfully raise a bonfire.

Cheng Lin sat down in his chair with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened, and continued the story of the morning in a calm tone.

As a result, an extremely strange scene appeared in this small mountain village.

A group of villagers sat nervously in a small courtyard listening to stories.

And not far away, across a low, dilapidated fence gate, a giant dragon and a group of guards stood in the snow, waiting silently.

The villagers were extremely nervous and frightened at first. It was not until dozens of minutes later that they gradually calmed down and became immersed in the story.

Cheng Lin deliberately sped up his speech and finished narrating a major plot within two hours.

No fragments.

He didn't want to leave any regrets to these villagers.

Unfortunately, no matter how fast I tell it, the story of millions of words will never be finished.

"Crack, crackle, crackle..."

The bonfire in the small courtyard burned, making a subtle sound.

The sky has turned dark, and very fine snowflakes have fallen.

"Okay, that's the end of today's story. Let's disperse."

Cheng Lin held the warm cup, took a sip of water, looked at the deep blue sky over the bonfire, and said.

The villagers woke up from a dream and immediately realized that it was finally time to say goodbye.

"Ize..."
